`datetime` — Basic date and time types¶

The datetime module supplies classes for manipulating dates and times.

Tarih ve saat aritmetiği desteklenirken, uygulamanın odak noktası çıktı biçimlendirme ve manipülasyon için verimli öznitelik çıkarımıdır.

Bilinçli ve Bilinçsiz Nesneler¶

Date and time objects may be categorized as “aware” or “naive” depending on whether or not they include time zone information.

Saat dilimi ve yaz saati uygulaması gibi geçerli algoritmik ve politik zaman ayarlamaları hakkında yeterli bilgiye sahip olan bir bilinçli nesne, kendisini diğer farkında nesnelere göre konumlandırabilir. Bilinçli bir nesne, zaman içinde yoruma açık olmayan belirli bir anı temsil eder. [1]

A naive object does not contain enough information to unambiguously locate itself relative to other date/time objects. Whether a naive object represents Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), local time, or time in some other time zone is purely up to the program, just like it is up to the program whether a particular number represents metres, miles, or mass. Naive objects are easy to understand and to work with, at the cost of ignoring some aspects of reality.

Bilinçli nesneler gerektiren uygulamalar için, datetime ve time nesneleri, soyut tzinfo sınıfının bir alt sınıfının örneğine ayarlanabilen isteğe bağlı bir saat dilimi bilgisi özniteliğine, tzinfo sahiptir. tzinfo nesneleri UTC zamanından sapma, saat dilimi adı ve yaz saati uygulamasının geçerli olup olmadığına ilişkin bilgileri yakalar.

Only one concrete tzinfo class, the timezone class, is supplied by the datetime module. The timezone class can represent simple time zones with fixed offsets from UTC, such as UTC itself or North American EST and EDT time zones. Supporting time zones at deeper levels of detail is up to the application. The rules for time adjustment across the world are more political than rational, change frequently, and there is no standard suitable for every application aside from UTC.

Sabitler¶

The datetime module exports the following constants:

datetime.MINYEAR¶: The smallest year number allowed in a date or datetime object. MINYEAR is 1.

datetime.MAXYEAR¶: The largest year number allowed in a date or datetime object. MAXYEAR is 9999.

datetime.UTC¶: Alias for the UTC time zone singleton datetime.timezone.utc.

Added in version 3.11.

Mevcut Türler¶

class datetime.date: Geçerli Miladi takvimin her zaman yürürlükte olduğu ve her zaman yürürlükte olacağı varsayılarak idealleştirilmiş bilinçsiz bir tarih. Öznitelikler: year, month, ve day.

class datetime.time: Her günün tam olarak 24*60*60 saniye olduğu varsayılarak, belirli bir günden bağımsız idealleştirilmiş bir zaman. (Burada “artık saniye” kavramı yoktur.) Öznitelikler: hour, minute, second, microsecond, ve tzinfo.

class datetime.datetime: Tarih ve saatin bir kombinasyonu. Öznitelikler: year, month, day, hour, minute, second, microsecond ve tzinfo.

class datetime.timedelta: A duration expressing the difference between two datetime or date instances to microsecond resolution.

class datetime.tzinfo: Zaman dilimi bilgi nesneleri için soyut bir temel sınıf. Bunlar datetime ve time sınıfları tarafından özelleştirilebilir bir zaman ayarlaması sağlamak için kullanılır (örneğin, saat dilimini ve/veya yaz saati uygulamasını hesaba katmak için).

class datetime.timezone: UTC’den sabit bir ofset olarak tzinfo soyut temel sınıfını uygulayan bir sınıf.

Added in version 3.2.

Bu türdeki nesneler değiştirilemezdir.

Alt sınıf ilişkileri:

object
    timedelta
    tzinfo
        timezone
    time
    date
        datetime

Ortak Özellikler¶

date, datetime, time ve timezone türleri bu ortak özellikleri paylaşır:

Bu türdeki nesneler değiştirilemezdir.
Bu türdeki nesneler hashable ‘dır, yani sözlük anahtarları olarak kullanılabilirler.
Bu tür nesneler pickle modülü aracılığıyla verimli pickling işlemini destekler.

Bir Nesnenin Bilinçli veya Bilinçsiz Olduğunu Belirleme¶

date türündeki nesneler her zaman bilinçsizdir.

time veya datetime türündeki bir nesne bilinçli veya bilinçsiz olabilir.

A datetime object d is aware if both of the following hold:

d.tzinfo, None değildir
d.tzinfo.utcoffset(d), None döndürmez

Otherwise, d is naive.

A time object t is aware if both of the following hold:

t.tzinfo, None değildir
t.tzinfo.utcoffset(None), None döndürmez.

Otherwise, t is naive.

Bilinçli ve bilinçsiz nesneler arasındaki ayrım timedelta nesneleri için geçerli değildir.

`timedelta` Nesneleri¶

Bir timedelta nesnesi, iki datetime veya date örneği arasındaki fark olan bir süreyi temsil eder.

class datetime.timedelta(days=0, seconds=0, microseconds=0, milliseconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, weeks=0)¶

All arguments are optional and default to 0. Arguments may be integers or floats, and may be positive or negative.

Yalnızca gün, saniye ve mikrosaniye dahili olarak saklanır. Argümanlar bu birimlere dönüştürülür:

Bir milisaniye 1000 mikrosaniyeye dönüştürülür.
Bir dakika 60 saniyeye dönüştürülür.
Bir saat 3600 saniyeye dönüştürülür.
Bir hafta 7 güne dönüştürülür.

ve günler, saniyeler ve mikrosaniyeler daha sonra gösterimin benzersiz olması için aşağıdaki şekilde normalleştirilir.

0 <= mikrosaniye < 1000000
0 <= saniye < 3600*24 (bir gündeki saniye sayısı)
-999999999 <= gün <= 999999999

Aşağıdaki örnekte gün, saniye ve mikrosaniye dışındaki tüm argümanların nasıl “birleştirildiği” ve sonuçta ortaya çıkan bu üç özelliğe normalleştirildiği gösterilmektedir:

>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>> delta = timedelta(
...     days=50,
...     seconds=27,
...     microseconds=10,
...     milliseconds=29000,
...     minutes=5,
...     hours=8,
...     weeks=2
... )
>>> # Only days, seconds, and microseconds remain
>>> delta
datetime.timedelta(days=64, seconds=29156, microseconds=10)

Herhangi bir bağımsız değişken bir ondalıklı sayı ise ve kesirli mikrosaniyeler varsa, tüm argümanlardan kalan kesirli mikrosaniyeler birleştirilir ve toplamları, yuvarlak-yarım-çift eşitlik bozucu kullanılarak en yakın mikrosaniyeye yuvarlanır. Hiçbir argüman ondalıklı değilse, dönüştürme ve normalleştirme işlemleri tam olarak yapılır (hiçbir bilgi kaybı olmaz).

Günlerin normalleştirilmiş değeri belirtilen aralığın dışında kalıyorsa, OverflowError ortaya çıkar.

Negatif değerlerin normalleştirilmesinin ilk başta şaşırtıcı olabileceğini unutmayın. Örneğin:

>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>> d = timedelta(microseconds=-1)
>>> (d.days, d.seconds, d.microseconds)
(-1, 86399, 999999)

Sınıf özellikleri:

timedelta.min¶: En düşük timedelta nesnesi, timedelta(-999999999).

timedelta.max¶: En yüksek timedelta nesnesi, timedelta(days=999999999, hours=23, minutes=59, seconds=59, microseconds=999999).

timedelta.resolution¶: Eşit olmayan timedelta nesneleri arasındaki mümkün olan en küçük fark, timedelta(microseconds=1).

Note that, because of normalization, timedelta.max is greater than -timedelta.min. -timedelta.max is not representable as a timedelta object.

Örnek özellikleri (salt okunur):

timedelta.days¶: Between -999,999,999 and 999,999,999 inclusive.

timedelta.seconds¶

Between 0 and 86,399 inclusive.

Uyarı

It is a somewhat common bug for code to unintentionally use this attribute when it is actually intended to get a total_seconds() value instead:

>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>> duration = timedelta(seconds=11235813)
>>> duration.days, duration.seconds
(130, 3813)
>>> duration.total_seconds()
11235813.0

timedelta.microseconds¶: Between 0 and 999,999 inclusive.

Desteklenen operasyonlar:

Operasyon	Sonuç
`t1 = t2 + t3`	Sum of `t2` and `t3`. Afterwards `t1 - t2 == t3` and `t1 - t3 == t2` are true. (1)
`t1 = t2 - t3`	Difference of `t2` and `t3`. Afterwards `t1 == t2 - t3` and `t2 == t1 + t3` are true. (1)(6)
`t1 = t2 * i or t1 = i * t2`	Delta multiplied by an integer. Afterwards `t1 // i == t2` is true, provided `i != 0`.
	In general, `t1 * i == t1 * (i-1) + t1` is true. (1)
`t1 = t2 * f or t1 = f * t2`	Delta multiplied by a float. The result is rounded to the nearest multiple of timedelta.resolution using round-half-to-even.
`f = t2 / t3`	Division (3) of overall duration `t2` by interval unit `t3`. Returns a `float` object.
`t1 = t2 / f or t1 = t2 / i`	Delta divided by a float or an int. The result is rounded to the nearest multiple of timedelta.resolution using round-half-to-even.
`t1 = t2 // i` or `t1 = t2 // t3`	The floor is computed and the remainder (if any) is thrown away. In the second case, an integer is returned. (3)
`t1 = t2 % t3`	The remainder is computed as a `timedelta` object. (3)
`q, r = divmod(t1, t2)`	Computes the quotient and the remainder: `q = t1 // t2` (3) and `r = t1 % t2`. `q` is an integer and `r` is a `timedelta` object.
`+t1`	Returns a `timedelta` object with the same value. (2)
`-t1`	Equivalent to `timedelta(-t1.days, -t1.seconds, -t1.microseconds)`, and to `t1 * -1`. (1)(4)
`abs(t)`	Equivalent to `+t` when `t.days >= 0`, and to `-t` when `t.days < 0`. (2)
`str(t)`	Returns a string in the form `[D day[s], ][H]H:MM:SS[.UUUUUU]`, where D is negative for negative `t`. (5)
`repr(t)`	Returns a string representation of the `timedelta` object as a constructor call with canonical attribute values.

Notes:

This is exact but may overflow.
This is exact and cannot overflow.
Division by zero raises ZeroDivisionError.
-timedelta.max is not representable as a timedelta object.
String representations of timedelta objects are normalized similarly to their internal representation. This leads to somewhat unusual results for negative timedeltas. For example:
```
>>> timedelta(hours=-5)
datetime.timedelta(days=-1, seconds=68400)
>>> print(_)
-1 day, 19:00:00
```
The expression t2 - t3 will always be equal to the expression t2 + (-t3) except when t3 is equal to timedelta.max; in that case the former will produce a result while the latter will overflow.

In addition to the operations listed above, timedelta objects support certain additions and subtractions with date and datetime objects (see below).

3.2 sürümünde değişti: Floor division and true division of a timedelta object by another timedelta object are now supported, as are remainder operations and the divmod() function. True division and multiplication of a timedelta object by a float object are now supported.

timedelta objects support equality and order comparisons.

In Boolean contexts, a timedelta object is considered to be true if and only if it isn’t equal to timedelta(0).

Instance methods:

timedelta.total_seconds()¶

Return the total number of seconds contained in the duration. Equivalent to td / timedelta(seconds=1). For interval units other than seconds, use the division form directly (e.g. td / timedelta(microseconds=1)).

Note that for very large time intervals (greater than 270 years on most platforms) this method will lose microsecond accuracy.

Added in version 3.2.

Examples of usage: `timedelta`¶

An additional example of normalization:

>>> # Components of another_year add up to exactly 365 days
>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>> year = timedelta(days=365)
>>> another_year = timedelta(weeks=40, days=84, hours=23,
...                          minutes=50, seconds=600)
>>> year == another_year
True
>>> year.total_seconds()
31536000.0

Examples of timedelta arithmetic:

>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>> year = timedelta(days=365)
>>> ten_years = 10 * year
>>> ten_years
datetime.timedelta(days=3650)
>>> ten_years.days // 365
10
>>> nine_years = ten_years - year
>>> nine_years
datetime.timedelta(days=3285)
>>> three_years = nine_years // 3
>>> three_years, three_years.days // 365
(datetime.timedelta(days=1095), 3)

`date` Objects¶

A date object represents a date (year, month and day) in an idealized calendar, the current Gregorian calendar indefinitely extended in both directions.

January 1 of year 1 is called day number 1, January 2 of year 1 is called day number 2, and so on. [2]

class datetime.date(year, month, day)¶

All arguments are required. Arguments must be integers, in the following ranges:

MINYEAR <= year <= MAXYEAR
1 <= month <= 12
1 <= day <= number of days in the given month and year

If an argument outside those ranges is given, ValueError is raised.

Other constructors, all class methods:

classmethod date.today()¶

Return the current local date.

This is equivalent to date.fromtimestamp(time.time()).

classmethod date.fromtimestamp(timestamp)¶

Return the local date corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, such as is returned by time.time().

This may raise OverflowError, if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C localtime() function, and OSError on localtime() failure. It’s common for this to be restricted to years from 1970 through 2038. Note that on non-POSIX systems that include leap seconds in their notion of a timestamp, leap seconds are ignored by fromtimestamp().

3.3 sürümünde değişti: Raise OverflowError instead of ValueError if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C localtime() function. Raise OSError instead of ValueError on localtime() failure.

classmethod date.fromordinal(ordinal)¶

Return the date corresponding to the proleptic Gregorian ordinal, where January 1 of year 1 has ordinal 1.

ValueError is raised unless 1 <= ordinal <= date.max.toordinal(). For any date d, date.fromordinal(d.toordinal()) == d.

classmethod date.fromisoformat(date_string)¶

Return a date corresponding to a date_string given in any valid ISO 8601 format, with the following exceptions:

Reduced precision dates are not currently supported (YYYY-MM, YYYY).
Extended date representations are not currently supported (±YYYYYY-MM-DD).
Ordinal dates are not currently supported (YYYY-OOO).

Examples:

>>> from datetime import date
>>> date.fromisoformat('2019-12-04')
datetime.date(2019, 12, 4)
>>> date.fromisoformat('20191204')
datetime.date(2019, 12, 4)
>>> date.fromisoformat('2021-W01-1')
datetime.date(2021, 1, 4)

Added in version 3.7.

3.11 sürümünde değişti: Previously, this method only supported the format YYYY-MM-DD.

classmethod date.fromisocalendar(year, week, day)¶: Return a date corresponding to the ISO calendar date specified by year, week and day. This is the inverse of the function date.isocalendar().

Added in version 3.8.

Sınıf özellikleri:

date.min¶: The earliest representable date, date(MINYEAR, 1, 1).

date.max¶: The latest representable date, date(MAXYEAR, 12, 31).

date.resolution¶: The smallest possible difference between non-equal date objects, timedelta(days=1).

Örnek özellikleri (salt okunur):

date.year¶: Between MINYEAR and MAXYEAR inclusive.

date.month¶: Between 1 and 12 inclusive.

date.day¶: Between 1 and the number of days in the given month of the given year.

Desteklenen operasyonlar:

Operasyon	Sonuç
`date2 = date1 + timedelta`	`date2` will be `timedelta.days` days after `date1`. (1)
`date2 = date1 - timedelta`	Computes `date2` such that `date2 + timedelta == date1`. (2)
`timedelta = date1 - date2`	(3)
`date1 == date2` `date1 != date2`	Equality comparison. (4)
`date1 < date2` `date1 > date2` `date1 <= date2` `date1 >= date2`	Order comparison. (5)

Notes:

date2 is moved forward in time if timedelta.days > 0, or backward if timedelta.days < 0. Afterward date2 - date1 == timedelta.days. timedelta.seconds and timedelta.microseconds are ignored. OverflowError is raised if date2.year would be smaller than MINYEAR or larger than MAXYEAR.
timedelta.seconds and timedelta.microseconds are ignored.
This is exact, and cannot overflow. timedelta.seconds and timedelta.microseconds are 0, and date2 + timedelta == date1 after.
date objects are equal if they represent the same date.

date objects that are not also datetime instances are never equal to datetime objects, even if they represent the same date.
date1 is considered less than date2 when date1 precedes date2 in time. In other words, date1 < date2 if and only if date1.toordinal() < date2.toordinal().

Order comparison between a date object that is not also a datetime instance and a datetime object raises TypeError.

3.13 sürümünde değişti: Comparison between datetime object and an instance of the date subclass that is not a datetime subclass no longer converts the latter to date, ignoring the time part and the time zone. The default behavior can be changed by overriding the special comparison methods in subclasses.

In Boolean contexts, all date objects are considered to be true.

Instance methods:

date.replace(year=self.year, month=self.month, day=self.day)¶

Return a date with the same value, except for those parameters given new values by whichever keyword arguments are specified.

Example:

>>> from datetime import date
>>> d = date(2002, 12, 31)
>>> d.replace(day=26)
datetime.date(2002, 12, 26)

date objects are also supported by generic function copy.replace().

date.timetuple()¶

Return a time.struct_time such as returned by time.localtime().

The hours, minutes and seconds are 0, and the DST flag is -1.

d.timetuple() is equivalent to:

time.struct_time((d.year, d.month, d.day, 0, 0, 0, d.weekday(), yday, -1))

where yday = d.toordinal() - date(d.year, 1, 1).toordinal() + 1 is the day number within the current year starting with 1 for January 1st.

date.toordinal()¶: Return the proleptic Gregorian ordinal of the date, where January 1 of year 1 has ordinal 1. For any date object d, date.fromordinal(d.toordinal()) == d.

date.weekday()¶: Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 0 and Sunday is 6. For example, date(2002, 12, 4).weekday() == 2, a Wednesday. See also isoweekday().

date.isoweekday()¶: Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 1 and Sunday is 7. For example, date(2002, 12, 4).isoweekday() == 3, a Wednesday. See also weekday(), isocalendar().

date.isocalendar()¶

Return a named tuple object with three components: year, week and weekday.

The ISO calendar is a widely used variant of the Gregorian calendar. [3]

The ISO year consists of 52 or 53 full weeks, and where a week starts on a Monday and ends on a Sunday. The first week of an ISO year is the first (Gregorian) calendar week of a year containing a Thursday. This is called week number 1, and the ISO year of that Thursday is the same as its Gregorian year.

For example, 2004 begins on a Thursday, so the first week of ISO year 2004 begins on Monday, 29 Dec 2003 and ends on Sunday, 4 Jan 2004:

>>> from datetime import date
>>> date(2003, 12, 29).isocalendar()
datetime.IsoCalendarDate(year=2004, week=1, weekday=1)
>>> date(2004, 1, 4).isocalendar()
datetime.IsoCalendarDate(year=2004, week=1, weekday=7)

3.9 sürümünde değişti: Result changed from a tuple to a named tuple.

date.isoformat()¶

Return a string representing the date in ISO 8601 format, YYYY-MM-DD:

>>> from datetime import date
>>> date(2002, 12, 4).isoformat()
'2002-12-04'

date.__str__()¶: For a date d, str(d) is equivalent to d.isoformat().

date.ctime()¶

Return a string representing the date:

>>> from datetime import date
>>> date(2002, 12, 4).ctime()
'Wed Dec  4 00:00:00 2002'

d.ctime() is equivalent to:

time.ctime(time.mktime(d.timetuple()))

on platforms where the native C ctime() function (which time.ctime() invokes, but which date.ctime() does not invoke) conforms to the C standard.

date.strftime(format)¶: Return a string representing the date, controlled by an explicit format string. Format codes referring to hours, minutes or seconds will see 0 values. See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and date.isoformat().

date.__format__(format)¶: Same as date.strftime(). This makes it possible to specify a format string for a date object in formatted string literals and when using str.format(). See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and date.isoformat().

Examples of Usage: `date`¶

Example of counting days to an event:

>>> import time
>>> from datetime import date
>>> today = date.today()
>>> today
datetime.date(2007, 12, 5)
>>> today == date.fromtimestamp(time.time())
True
>>> my_birthday = date(today.year, 6, 24)
>>> if my_birthday < today:
...     my_birthday = my_birthday.replace(year=today.year + 1)
...
>>> my_birthday
datetime.date(2008, 6, 24)
>>> time_to_birthday = abs(my_birthday - today)
>>> time_to_birthday.days
202

More examples of working with date:

>>> from datetime import date
>>> d = date.fromordinal(730920) # 730920th day after 1. 1. 0001
>>> d
datetime.date(2002, 3, 11)

>>> # Methods related to formatting string output
>>> d.isoformat()
'2002-03-11'
>>> d.strftime("%d/%m/%y")
'11/03/02'
>>> d.strftime("%A %d. %B %Y")
'Monday 11. March 2002'
>>> d.ctime()
'Mon Mar 11 00:00:00 2002'
>>> 'The {1} is {0:%d}, the {2} is {0:%B}.'.format(d, "day", "month")
'The day is 11, the month is March.'

>>> # Methods for to extracting 'components' under different calendars
>>> t = d.timetuple()
>>> for i in t:     
...     print(i)
2002                # year

>>> ic = d.isocalendar()
>>> for i in ic:    
...     print(i)
2002                # ISO year
11                  # ISO week number
1                   # ISO day number ( 1 = Monday )

>>> # A date object is immutable; all operations produce a new object
>>> d.replace(year=2005)
datetime.date(2005, 3, 11)

`datetime` Objects¶

A datetime object is a single object containing all the information from a date object and a time object.

Like a date object, datetime assumes the current Gregorian calendar extended in both directions; like a time object, datetime assumes there are exactly 3600*24 seconds in every day.

Constructor:

class datetime.datetime(year, month, day, hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0, tzinfo=None, *, fold=0)¶

The year, month and day arguments are required. tzinfo may be None, or an instance of a tzinfo subclass. The remaining arguments must be integers in the following ranges:

MINYEAR <= year <= MAXYEAR,
1 <= month <= 12,
1 <= day <= number of days in the given month and year,
0 <= hour < 24,
0 <= minute < 60,
0 <= second < 60,
0 <= microsecond < 1000000,
fold in [0, 1].

If an argument outside those ranges is given, ValueError is raised.

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Added the fold parameter.

Other constructors, all class methods:

classmethod datetime.today()¶

Return the current local date and time, with tzinfo None.

Equivalent to:

datetime.fromtimestamp(time.time())

See also now(), fromtimestamp().

This method is functionally equivalent to now(), but without a tz parameter.

classmethod datetime.now(tz=None)¶

Return the current local date and time.

If optional argument tz is None or not specified, this is like today(), but, if possible, supplies more precision than can be gotten from going through a time.time() timestamp (for example, this may be possible on platforms supplying the C gettimeofday() function).

If tz is not None, it must be an instance of a tzinfo subclass, and the current date and time are converted to tz’s time zone.

This function is preferred over today() and utcnow().

Not

Subsequent calls to datetime.now() may return the same instant depending on the precision of the underlying clock.

classmethod datetime.utcnow()¶

Return the current UTC date and time, with tzinfo None.

This is like now(), but returns the current UTC date and time, as a naive datetime object. An aware current UTC datetime can be obtained by calling datetime.now(timezone.utc). See also now().

Uyarı

Because naive datetime objects are treated by many datetime methods as local times, it is preferred to use aware datetimes to represent times in UTC. As such, the recommended way to create an object representing the current time in UTC is by calling datetime.now(timezone.utc).

3.12 sürümünden beri kullanım dışı: Use datetime.now() with UTC instead.

classmethod datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp, tz=None)¶

Return the local date and time corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, such as is returned by time.time(). If optional argument tz is None or not specified, the timestamp is converted to the platform’s local date and time, and the returned datetime object is naive.

If tz is not None, it must be an instance of a tzinfo subclass, and the timestamp is converted to tz’s time zone.

fromtimestamp() may raise OverflowError, if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C localtime() or gmtime() functions, and OSError on localtime() or gmtime() failure. It’s common for this to be restricted to years in 1970 through 2038. Note that on non-POSIX systems that include leap seconds in their notion of a timestamp, leap seconds are ignored by fromtimestamp(), and then it’s possible to have two timestamps differing by a second that yield identical datetime objects. This method is preferred over utcfromtimestamp().

3.3 sürümünde değişti: Raise OverflowError instead of ValueError if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C localtime() or gmtime() functions. Raise OSError instead of ValueError on localtime() or gmtime() failure.

3.6 sürümünde değişti: fromtimestamp() may return instances with fold set to 1.

classmethod datetime.utcfromtimestamp(timestamp)¶

Return the UTC datetime corresponding to the POSIX timestamp, with tzinfo None. (The resulting object is naive.)

This may raise OverflowError, if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C gmtime() function, and OSError on gmtime() failure. It’s common for this to be restricted to years in 1970 through 2038.

To get an aware datetime object, call fromtimestamp():

datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp, timezone.utc)

On the POSIX compliant platforms, it is equivalent to the following expression:

datetime(1970, 1, 1, tzinfo=timezone.utc) + timedelta(seconds=timestamp)

except the latter formula always supports the full years range: between MINYEAR and MAXYEAR inclusive.

Uyarı

Because naive datetime objects are treated by many datetime methods as local times, it is preferred to use aware datetimes to represent times in UTC. As such, the recommended way to create an object representing a specific timestamp in UTC is by calling datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp, tz=timezone.utc).

3.3 sürümünde değişti: Raise OverflowError instead of ValueError if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C gmtime() function. Raise OSError instead of ValueError on gmtime() failure.

3.12 sürümünden beri kullanım dışı: Use datetime.fromtimestamp() with UTC instead.

classmethod datetime.fromordinal(ordinal)¶: Return the datetime corresponding to the proleptic Gregorian ordinal, where January 1 of year 1 has ordinal 1. ValueError is raised unless 1 <= ordinal <= datetime.max.toordinal(). The hour, minute, second and microsecond of the result are all 0, and tzinfo is None.

classmethod datetime.combine(date, time, tzinfo=time.tzinfo)¶

Return a new datetime object whose date components are equal to the given date object’s, and whose time components are equal to the given time object’s. If the tzinfo argument is provided, its value is used to set the tzinfo attribute of the result, otherwise the tzinfo attribute of the time argument is used. If the date argument is a datetime object, its time components and tzinfo attributes are ignored.

For any datetime object d, d == datetime.combine(d.date(), d.time(), d.tzinfo).

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Added the tzinfo argument.

classmethod datetime.fromisoformat(date_string)¶

Return a datetime corresponding to a date_string in any valid ISO 8601 format, with the following exceptions:

Time zone offsets may have fractional seconds.
The T separator may be replaced by any single unicode character.
Fractional hours and minutes are not supported.
Reduced precision dates are not currently supported (YYYY-MM, YYYY).
Extended date representations are not currently supported (±YYYYYY-MM-DD).
Ordinal dates are not currently supported (YYYY-OOO).

Examples:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 0)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('20111104')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 0)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04T00:05:23')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04T00:05:23Z')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('20111104T000523')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-W01-2T00:05:23.283')
datetime.datetime(2011, 1, 4, 0, 5, 23, 283000)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04 00:05:23.283')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23, 283000)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04 00:05:23.283+00:00')
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23, 283000, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)
>>> datetime.fromisoformat('2011-11-04T00:05:23+04:00')   
datetime.datetime(2011, 11, 4, 0, 5, 23,
    tzinfo=datetime.timezone(datetime.timedelta(seconds=14400)))

Added in version 3.7.

3.11 sürümünde değişti: Previously, this method only supported formats that could be emitted by date.isoformat() or datetime.isoformat().

classmethod datetime.fromisocalendar(year, week, day)¶: Return a datetime corresponding to the ISO calendar date specified by year, week and day. The non-date components of the datetime are populated with their normal default values. This is the inverse of the function datetime.isocalendar().

Added in version 3.8.

classmethod datetime.strptime(date_string, format)¶

Return a datetime corresponding to date_string, parsed according to format.

If format does not contain microseconds or time zone information, this is equivalent to:

datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string, format)[0:6]))

ValueError is raised if the date_string and format can’t be parsed by time.strptime() or if it returns a value which isn’t a time tuple. See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and datetime.fromisoformat().

3.13 sürümünde değişti: If format specifies a day of month without a year a DeprecationWarning is now emitted. This is to avoid a quadrennial leap year bug in code seeking to parse only a month and day as the default year used in absence of one in the format is not a leap year. Such format values may raise an error as of Python 3.15. The workaround is to always include a year in your format. If parsing date_string values that do not have a year, explicitly add a year that is a leap year before parsing:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> date_string = "02/29"
>>> when = datetime.strptime(f"{date_string};1984", "%m/%d;%Y")  # Avoids leap year bug.
>>> when.strftime("%B %d")  
'February 29'

Sınıf özellikleri:

datetime.min¶: The earliest representable datetime, datetime(MINYEAR, 1, 1, tzinfo=None).

datetime.max¶: The latest representable datetime, datetime(MAXYEAR, 12, 31, 23, 59, 59, 999999, tzinfo=None).

datetime.resolution¶: The smallest possible difference between non-equal datetime objects, timedelta(microseconds=1).

Örnek özellikleri (salt okunur):

datetime.year¶: Between MINYEAR and MAXYEAR inclusive.

datetime.month¶: Between 1 and 12 inclusive.

datetime.day¶: Between 1 and the number of days in the given month of the given year.

datetime.hour¶: In range(24).

datetime.minute¶: In range(60).

datetime.second¶: In range(60).

datetime.microsecond¶: In range(1000000).

datetime.tzinfo¶: The object passed as the tzinfo argument to the datetime constructor, or None if none was passed.

datetime.fold¶: In [0, 1]. Used to disambiguate wall times during a repeated interval. (A repeated interval occurs when clocks are rolled back at the end of daylight saving time or when the UTC offset for the current zone is decreased for political reasons.) The values 0 and 1 represent, respectively, the earlier and later of the two moments with the same wall time representation.

Added in version 3.6.

Desteklenen operasyonlar:

Operasyon	Sonuç
`datetime2 = datetime1 + timedelta`	(1)
`datetime2 = datetime1 - timedelta`	(2)
`timedelta = datetime1 - datetime2`	(3)
`datetime1 == datetime2` `datetime1 != datetime2`	Equality comparison. (4)
`datetime1 < datetime2` `datetime1 > datetime2` `datetime1 <= datetime2` `datetime1 >= datetime2`	Order comparison. (5)

datetime2 is a duration of timedelta removed from datetime1, moving forward in time if timedelta.days > 0, or backward if timedelta.days < 0. The result has the same tzinfo attribute as the input datetime, and datetime2 - datetime1 == timedelta after. OverflowError is raised if datetime2.year would be smaller than MINYEAR or larger than MAXYEAR. Note that no time zone adjustments are done even if the input is an aware object.
Computes the datetime2 such that datetime2 + timedelta == datetime1. As for addition, the result has the same tzinfo attribute as the input datetime, and no time zone adjustments are done even if the input is aware.
Subtraction of a datetime from a datetime is defined only if both operands are naive, or if both are aware. If one is aware and the other is naive, TypeError is raised.

If both are naive, or both are aware and have the same tzinfo attribute, the tzinfo attributes are ignored, and the result is a timedelta object t such that datetime2 + t == datetime1. No time zone adjustments are done in this case.

If both are aware and have different tzinfo attributes, a-b acts as if a and b were first converted to naive UTC datetimes. The result is (a.replace(tzinfo=None) - a.utcoffset()) - (b.replace(tzinfo=None) - b.utcoffset()) except that the implementation never overflows.
datetime objects are equal if they represent the same date and time, taking into account the time zone.

Naive and aware datetime objects are never equal.

If both comparands are aware, and have the same tzinfo attribute, the tzinfo and fold attributes are ignored and the base datetimes are compared. If both comparands are aware and have different tzinfo attributes, the comparison acts as comparands were first converted to UTC datetimes except that the implementation never overflows. datetime instances in a repeated interval are never equal to datetime instances in other time zone.
datetime1 is considered less than datetime2 when datetime1 precedes datetime2 in time, taking into account the time zone.

Order comparison between naive and aware datetime objects raises TypeError.

If both comparands are aware, and have the same tzinfo attribute, the tzinfo and fold attributes are ignored and the base datetimes are compared. If both comparands are aware and have different tzinfo attributes, the comparison acts as comparands were first converted to UTC datetimes except that the implementation never overflows.

3.3 sürümünde değişti: Equality comparisons between aware and naive datetime instances don’t raise TypeError.

3.13 sürümünde değişti: Comparison between datetime object and an instance of the date subclass that is not a datetime subclass no longer converts the latter to date, ignoring the time part and the time zone. The default behavior can be changed by overriding the special comparison methods in subclasses.

Instance methods:

datetime.date()¶: Return date object with same year, month and day.

datetime.time()¶: Return time object with same hour, minute, second, microsecond and fold. tzinfo is None. See also method timetz().

3.6 sürümünde değişti: The fold value is copied to the returned time object.

datetime.timetz()¶: Return time object with same hour, minute, second, microsecond, fold, and tzinfo attributes. See also method time().

3.6 sürümünde değişti: The fold value is copied to the returned time object.

datetime.replace(year=self.year, month=self.month, day=self.day, hour=self.hour, minute=self.minute, second=self.second, microsecond=self.microsecond, tzinfo=self.tzinfo, *, fold=0)¶

Return a datetime with the same attributes, except for those attributes given new values by whichever keyword arguments are specified. Note that tzinfo=None can be specified to create a naive datetime from an aware datetime with no conversion of date and time data.

datetime objects are also supported by generic function copy.replace().

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Added the fold parameter.

datetime.astimezone(tz=None)¶

Return a datetime object with new tzinfo attribute tz, adjusting the date and time data so the result is the same UTC time as self, but in tz’s local time.

If provided, tz must be an instance of a tzinfo subclass, and its utcoffset() and dst() methods must not return None. If self is naive, it is presumed to represent time in the system time zone.

If called without arguments (or with tz=None) the system local time zone is assumed for the target time zone. The .tzinfo attribute of the converted datetime instance will be set to an instance of timezone with the zone name and offset obtained from the OS.

If self.tzinfo is tz, self.astimezone(tz) is equal to self: no adjustment of date or time data is performed. Else the result is local time in the time zone tz, representing the same UTC time as self: after astz = dt.astimezone(tz), astz - astz.utcoffset() will have the same date and time data as dt - dt.utcoffset().

If you merely want to attach a timezone object tz to a datetime dt without adjustment of date and time data, use dt.replace(tzinfo=tz). If you merely want to remove the timezone object from an aware datetime dt without conversion of date and time data, use dt.replace(tzinfo=None).

Note that the default tzinfo.fromutc() method can be overridden in a tzinfo subclass to affect the result returned by astimezone(). Ignoring error cases, astimezone() acts like:

def astimezone(self, tz):
    if self.tzinfo is tz:
        return self
    # Convert self to UTC, and attach the new timezone object.
    utc = (self - self.utcoffset()).replace(tzinfo=tz)
    # Convert from UTC to tz's local time.
    return tz.fromutc(utc)

3.3 sürümünde değişti: tz now can be omitted.

3.6 sürümünde değişti: The astimezone() method can now be called on naive instances that are presumed to represent system local time.

datetime.utcoffset()¶: If tzinfo is None, returns None, else returns self.tzinfo.utcoffset(self), and raises an exception if the latter doesn’t return None or a timedelta object with magnitude less than one day.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The UTC offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

datetime.dst()¶: If tzinfo is None, returns None, else returns self.tzinfo.dst(self), and raises an exception if the latter doesn’t return None or a timedelta object with magnitude less than one day.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The DST offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

datetime.tzname()¶: If tzinfo is None, returns None, else returns self.tzinfo.tzname(self), raises an exception if the latter doesn’t return None or a string object,

datetime.timetuple()¶

Return a time.struct_time such as returned by time.localtime().

d.timetuple() is equivalent to:

time.struct_time((d.year, d.month, d.day,
                  d.hour, d.minute, d.second,
                  d.weekday(), yday, dst))

where yday = d.toordinal() - date(d.year, 1, 1).toordinal() + 1 is the day number within the current year starting with 1 for January 1st. The tm_isdst flag of the result is set according to the dst() method: tzinfo is None or dst() returns None, tm_isdst is set to -1; else if dst() returns a non-zero value, tm_isdst is set to 1; else tm_isdst is set to 0.

datetime.utctimetuple()¶

If datetime instance d is naive, this is the same as d.timetuple() except that tm_isdst is forced to 0 regardless of what d.dst() returns. DST is never in effect for a UTC time.

If d is aware, d is normalized to UTC time, by subtracting d.utcoffset(), and a time.struct_time for the normalized time is returned. tm_isdst is forced to 0. Note that an OverflowError may be raised if d.year was MINYEAR or MAXYEAR and UTC adjustment spills over a year boundary.

Uyarı

Because naive datetime objects are treated by many datetime methods as local times, it is preferred to use aware datetimes to represent times in UTC; as a result, using datetime.utctimetuple() may give misleading results. If you have a naive datetime representing UTC, use datetime.replace(tzinfo=timezone.utc) to make it aware, at which point you can use datetime.timetuple().

datetime.toordinal()¶: Return the proleptic Gregorian ordinal of the date. The same as self.date().toordinal().

datetime.timestamp()¶

Return POSIX timestamp corresponding to the datetime instance. The return value is a float similar to that returned by time.time().

Naive datetime instances are assumed to represent local time and this method relies on the platform C mktime() function to perform the conversion. Since datetime supports wider range of values than mktime() on many platforms, this method may raise OverflowError or OSError for times far in the past or far in the future.

For aware datetime instances, the return value is computed as:

(dt - datetime(1970, 1, 1, tzinfo=timezone.utc)).total_seconds()

Added in version 3.3.

3.6 sürümünde değişti: The timestamp() method uses the fold attribute to disambiguate the times during a repeated interval.

Not

There is no method to obtain the POSIX timestamp directly from a naive datetime instance representing UTC time. If your application uses this convention and your system time zone is not set to UTC, you can obtain the POSIX timestamp by supplying tzinfo=timezone.utc:

timestamp = dt.replace(tzinfo=timezone.utc).timestamp()

or by calculating the timestamp directly:

timestamp = (dt - datetime(1970, 1, 1)) / timedelta(seconds=1)

datetime.weekday()¶: Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 0 and Sunday is 6. The same as self.date().weekday(). See also isoweekday().

datetime.isoweekday()¶: Return the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 1 and Sunday is 7. The same as self.date().isoweekday(). See also weekday(), isocalendar().

datetime.isocalendar()¶: Return a named tuple with three components: year, week and weekday. The same as self.date().isocalendar().

datetime.isoformat(sep='T', timespec='auto')¶

Return a string representing the date and time in ISO 8601 format:

YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.ffffff, if microsecond is not 0
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS, if microsecond is 0

If utcoffset() does not return None, a string is appended, giving the UTC offset:

YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.ffffff+HH:MM[:SS[.ffffff]], if microsecond is not 0
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS+HH:MM[:SS[.ffffff]], if microsecond is 0

Examples:

>>> from datetime import datetime, timezone
>>> datetime(2019, 5, 18, 15, 17, 8, 132263).isoformat()
'2019-05-18T15:17:08.132263'
>>> datetime(2019, 5, 18, 15, 17, tzinfo=timezone.utc).isoformat()
'2019-05-18T15:17:00+00:00'

The optional argument sep (default 'T') is a one-character separator, placed between the date and time portions of the result. For example:

>>> from datetime import tzinfo, timedelta, datetime
>>> class TZ(tzinfo):
...     """A time zone with an arbitrary, constant -06:39 offset."""
...     def utcoffset(self, dt):
...         return timedelta(hours=-6, minutes=-39)
...
>>> datetime(2002, 12, 25, tzinfo=TZ()).isoformat(' ')
'2002-12-25 00:00:00-06:39'
>>> datetime(2009, 11, 27, microsecond=100, tzinfo=TZ()).isoformat()
'2009-11-27T00:00:00.000100-06:39'

The optional argument timespec specifies the number of additional components of the time to include (the default is 'auto'). It can be one of the following:

'auto': Same as 'seconds' if microsecond is 0, same as 'microseconds' otherwise.
'hours': Include the hour in the two-digit HH format.
'minutes': Include hour and minute in HH:MM format.
'seconds': Include hour, minute, and second in HH:MM:SS format.
'milliseconds': Include full time, but truncate fractional second part to milliseconds. HH:MM:SS.sss format.
'microseconds': Include full time in HH:MM:SS.ffffff format.

Not

Excluded time components are truncated, not rounded.

ValueError will be raised on an invalid timespec argument:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime.now().isoformat(timespec='minutes')   
'2002-12-25T00:00'
>>> dt = datetime(2015, 1, 1, 12, 30, 59, 0)
>>> dt.isoformat(timespec='microseconds')
'2015-01-01T12:30:59.000000'

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Added the timespec parameter.

datetime.__str__()¶: For a datetime instance d, str(d) is equivalent to d.isoformat(' ').

datetime.ctime()¶

Return a string representing the date and time:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime(2002, 12, 4, 20, 30, 40).ctime()
'Wed Dec  4 20:30:40 2002'

The output string will not include time zone information, regardless of whether the input is aware or naive.

d.ctime() is equivalent to:

time.ctime(time.mktime(d.timetuple()))

on platforms where the native C ctime() function (which time.ctime() invokes, but which datetime.ctime() does not invoke) conforms to the C standard.

datetime.strftime(format)¶: Return a string representing the date and time, controlled by an explicit format string. See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and datetime.isoformat().

datetime.__format__(format)¶: Same as datetime.strftime(). This makes it possible to specify a format string for a datetime object in formatted string literals and when using str.format(). See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and datetime.isoformat().

Examples of Usage: `datetime`¶

Examples of working with datetime objects:

>>> from datetime import datetime, date, time, timezone

>>> # Using datetime.combine()
>>> d = date(2005, 7, 14)
>>> t = time(12, 30)
>>> datetime.combine(d, t)
datetime.datetime(2005, 7, 14, 12, 30)

>>> # Using datetime.now()

>>> datetime.now(timezone.utc)   
datetime.datetime(2007, 12, 6, 15, 29, 43, 79060, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)

>>> # Using datetime.strptime()
>>> dt = datetime.strptime("21/11/06 16:30", "%d/%m/%y %H:%M")
>>> dt

>>> # Using datetime.timetuple() to get tuple of all attributes
>>> tt = dt.timetuple()
>>> for it in tt:   
...     print(it)
...
2006    # year

>>> ic = dt.isocalendar()
>>> for it in ic:   
...     print(it)
...
2006    # ISO year
47      # ISO week
2       # ISO weekday

>>> # Formatting a datetime
>>> dt.strftime("%A, %d. %B %Y %I:%M%p")
'Tuesday, 21. November 2006 04:30PM'
>>> 'The {1} is {0:%d}, the {2} is {0:%B}, the {3} is {0:%I:%M%p}.'.format(dt, "day", "month", "time")
'The day is 21, the month is November, the time is 04:30PM.'

The example below defines a tzinfo subclass capturing time zone information for Kabul, Afghanistan, which used +4 UTC until 1945 and then +4:30 UTC thereafter:

from datetime import timedelta, datetime, tzinfo, timezone

class KabulTz(tzinfo):
    # Kabul used +4 until 1945, when they moved to +4:30
    UTC_MOVE_DATE = datetime(1944, 12, 31, 20, tzinfo=timezone.utc)

    def utcoffset(self, dt):
        if dt.year < 1945:
            return timedelta(hours=4)
        elif (1945, 1, 1, 0, 0) <= dt.timetuple()[:5] < (1945, 1, 1, 0, 30):
            # An ambiguous ("imaginary") half-hour range representing
            # a 'fold' in time due to the shift from +4 to +4:30.
            # If dt falls in the imaginary range, use fold to decide how
            # to resolve. See PEP495.
            return timedelta(hours=4, minutes=(30 if dt.fold else 0))
        else:
            return timedelta(hours=4, minutes=30)

    def fromutc(self, dt):
        # Follow same validations as in datetime.tzinfo
        if not isinstance(dt, datetime):
            raise TypeError("fromutc() requires a datetime argument")
        if dt.tzinfo is not self:
            raise ValueError("dt.tzinfo is not self")

        # A custom implementation is required for fromutc as
        # the input to this function is a datetime with utc values
        # but with a tzinfo set to self.
        # See datetime.astimezone or fromtimestamp.
        if dt.replace(tzinfo=timezone.utc) >= self.UTC_MOVE_DATE:
            return dt + timedelta(hours=4, minutes=30)
        else:
            return dt + timedelta(hours=4)

    def dst(self, dt):

        return timedelta(0)

    def tzname(self, dt):
        if dt >= self.UTC_MOVE_DATE:
            return "+04:30"
        return "+04"

Usage of KabulTz from above:

>>> tz1 = KabulTz()

>>> # Datetime before the change
>>> dt1 = datetime(1900, 11, 21, 16, 30, tzinfo=tz1)
>>> print(dt1.utcoffset())

>>> dt2 == dt3
True

`time` Objects¶

A time object represents a (local) time of day, independent of any particular day, and subject to adjustment via a tzinfo object.

class datetime.time(hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0, tzinfo=None, *, fold=0)¶

All arguments are optional. tzinfo may be None, or an instance of a tzinfo subclass. The remaining arguments must be integers in the following ranges:

0 <= hour < 24,
0 <= minute < 60,
0 <= second < 60,
0 <= microsecond < 1000000,
fold in [0, 1].

If an argument outside those ranges is given, ValueError is raised. All default to 0 except tzinfo, which defaults to None.

Sınıf özellikleri:

time.min¶: The earliest representable time, time(0, 0, 0, 0).

time.max¶: The latest representable time, time(23, 59, 59, 999999).

time.resolution¶: The smallest possible difference between non-equal time objects, timedelta(microseconds=1), although note that arithmetic on time objects is not supported.

Örnek özellikleri (salt okunur):

time.hour¶: In range(24).

time.minute¶: In range(60).

time.second¶: In range(60).

time.microsecond¶: In range(1000000).

time.tzinfo¶: The object passed as the tzinfo argument to the time constructor, or None if none was passed.

time.fold¶: In [0, 1]. Used to disambiguate wall times during a repeated interval. (A repeated interval occurs when clocks are rolled back at the end of daylight saving time or when the UTC offset for the current zone is decreased for political reasons.) The values 0 and 1 represent, respectively, the earlier and later of the two moments with the same wall time representation.

Added in version 3.6.

time objects support equality and order comparisons, where a is considered less than b when a precedes b in time.

Naive and aware time objects are never equal. Order comparison between naive and aware time objects raises TypeError.

If both comparands are aware, and have the same tzinfo attribute, the tzinfo and fold attributes are ignored and the base times are compared. If both comparands are aware and have different tzinfo attributes, the comparands are first adjusted by subtracting their UTC offsets (obtained from self.utcoffset()).

3.3 sürümünde değişti: Equality comparisons between aware and naive time instances don’t raise TypeError.

In Boolean contexts, a time object is always considered to be true.

3.5 sürümünde değişti: Before Python 3.5, a time object was considered to be false if it represented midnight in UTC. This behavior was considered obscure and error-prone and has been removed in Python 3.5. See bpo-13936 for full details.

Other constructor:

classmethod time.fromisoformat(time_string)¶

Return a time corresponding to a time_string in any valid ISO 8601 format, with the following exceptions:

Time zone offsets may have fractional seconds.
The leading T, normally required in cases where there may be ambiguity between a date and a time, is not required.
Fractional seconds may have any number of digits (anything beyond 6 will be truncated).
Fractional hours and minutes are not supported.

Examples:

>>> from datetime import time
>>> time.fromisoformat('04:23:01')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1)
>>> time.fromisoformat('T04:23:01')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1)
>>> time.fromisoformat('T042301')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1)
>>> time.fromisoformat('04:23:01.000384')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1, 384)
>>> time.fromisoformat('04:23:01,000384')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1, 384)
>>> time.fromisoformat('04:23:01+04:00')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1, tzinfo=datetime.timezone(datetime.timedelta(seconds=14400)))
>>> time.fromisoformat('04:23:01Z')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)
>>> time.fromisoformat('04:23:01+00:00')
datetime.time(4, 23, 1, tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)

Added in version 3.7.

3.11 sürümünde değişti: Previously, this method only supported formats that could be emitted by time.isoformat().

Instance methods:

time.replace(hour=self.hour, minute=self.minute, second=self.second, microsecond=self.microsecond, tzinfo=self.tzinfo, *, fold=0)¶

Return a time with the same value, except for those attributes given new values by whichever keyword arguments are specified. Note that tzinfo=None can be specified to create a naive time from an aware time, without conversion of the time data.

time objects are also supported by generic function copy.replace().

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Added the fold parameter.

time.isoformat(timespec='auto')¶

Return a string representing the time in ISO 8601 format, one of:

HH:MM:SS.ffffff, if microsecond is not 0
HH:MM:SS, if microsecond is 0
HH:MM:SS.ffffff+HH:MM[:SS[.ffffff]], if utcoffset() does not return None
HH:MM:SS+HH:MM[:SS[.ffffff]], if microsecond is 0 and utcoffset() does not return None

The optional argument timespec specifies the number of additional components of the time to include (the default is 'auto'). It can be one of the following:

'auto': Same as 'seconds' if microsecond is 0, same as 'microseconds' otherwise.
'hours': Include the hour in the two-digit HH format.
'minutes': Include hour and minute in HH:MM format.
'seconds': Include hour, minute, and second in HH:MM:SS format.
'milliseconds': Include full time, but truncate fractional second part to milliseconds. HH:MM:SS.sss format.
'microseconds': Include full time in HH:MM:SS.ffffff format.

Not

Excluded time components are truncated, not rounded.

ValueError will be raised on an invalid timespec argument.

Example:

>>> from datetime import time
>>> time(hour=12, minute=34, second=56, microsecond=123456).isoformat(timespec='minutes')
'12:34'
>>> dt = time(hour=12, minute=34, second=56, microsecond=0)
>>> dt.isoformat(timespec='microseconds')
'12:34:56.000000'
>>> dt.isoformat(timespec='auto')
'12:34:56'

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Added the timespec parameter.

time.__str__()¶: For a time t, str(t) is equivalent to t.isoformat().

time.strftime(format)¶: Return a string representing the time, controlled by an explicit format string. See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and time.isoformat().

time.__format__(format)¶: Same as time.strftime(). This makes it possible to specify a format string for a time object in formatted string literals and when using str.format(). See also strftime() and strptime() Behavior and time.isoformat().

time.utcoffset()¶: If tzinfo is None, returns None, else returns self.tzinfo.utcoffset(None), and raises an exception if the latter doesn’t return None or a timedelta object with magnitude less than one day.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The UTC offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

time.dst()¶: If tzinfo is None, returns None, else returns self.tzinfo.dst(None), and raises an exception if the latter doesn’t return None, or a timedelta object with magnitude less than one day.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The DST offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

time.tzname()¶: If tzinfo is None, returns None, else returns self.tzinfo.tzname(None), or raises an exception if the latter doesn’t return None or a string object.

Examples of Usage: `time`¶

Examples of working with a time object:

>>> from datetime import time, tzinfo, timedelta
>>> class TZ1(tzinfo):
...     def utcoffset(self, dt):
...         return timedelta(hours=1)
...     def dst(self, dt):
...         return timedelta(0)
...     def tzname(self,dt):
...         return "+01:00"
...     def  __repr__(self):
...         return f"{self.__class__.__name__}()"
...
>>> t = time(12, 10, 30, tzinfo=TZ1())
>>> t
datetime.time(12, 10, 30, tzinfo=TZ1())
>>> t.isoformat()
'12:10:30+01:00'
>>> t.dst()
datetime.timedelta(0)
>>> t.tzname()
'+01:00'
>>> t.strftime("%H:%M:%S %Z")
'12:10:30 +01:00'
>>> 'The {} is {:%H:%M}.'.format("time", t)
'The time is 12:10.'

`tzinfo` Objects¶

class datetime.tzinfo¶

This is an abstract base class, meaning that this class should not be instantiated directly. Define a subclass of tzinfo to capture information about a particular time zone.

An instance of (a concrete subclass of) tzinfo can be passed to the constructors for datetime and time objects. The latter objects view their attributes as being in local time, and the tzinfo object supports methods revealing offset of local time from UTC, the name of the time zone, and DST offset, all relative to a date or time object passed to them.

You need to derive a concrete subclass, and (at least) supply implementations of the standard tzinfo methods needed by the datetime methods you use. The datetime module provides timezone, a simple concrete subclass of tzinfo which can represent time zones with fixed offset from UTC such as UTC itself or North American EST and EDT.

Special requirement for pickling: A tzinfo subclass must have an __init__() method that can be called with no arguments, otherwise it can be pickled but possibly not unpickled again. This is a technical requirement that may be relaxed in the future.

A concrete subclass of tzinfo may need to implement the following methods. Exactly which methods are needed depends on the uses made of aware datetime objects. If in doubt, simply implement all of them.

tzinfo.utcoffset(dt)¶

Return offset of local time from UTC, as a timedelta object that is positive east of UTC. If local time is west of UTC, this should be negative.

This represents the total offset from UTC; for example, if a tzinfo object represents both time zone and DST adjustments, utcoffset() should return their sum. If the UTC offset isn’t known, return None. Else the value returned must be a timedelta object strictly between -timedelta(hours=24) and timedelta(hours=24) (the magnitude of the offset must be less than one day). Most implementations of utcoffset() will probably look like one of these two:

return CONSTANT                 # fixed-offset class
return CONSTANT + self.dst(dt)  # daylight-aware class

If utcoffset() does not return None, dst() should not return None either.

The default implementation of utcoffset() raises NotImplementedError.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The UTC offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

tzinfo.dst(dt)¶

Return the daylight saving time (DST) adjustment, as a timedelta object or None if DST information isn’t known.

Return timedelta(0) if DST is not in effect. If DST is in effect, return the offset as a timedelta object (see utcoffset() for details). Note that DST offset, if applicable, has already been added to the UTC offset returned by utcoffset(), so there’s no need to consult dst() unless you’re interested in obtaining DST info separately. For example, datetime.timetuple() calls its tzinfo attribute’s dst() method to determine how the tm_isdst flag should be set, and tzinfo.fromutc() calls dst() to account for DST changes when crossing time zones.

An instance tz of a tzinfo subclass that models both standard and daylight times must be consistent in this sense:

tz.utcoffset(dt) - tz.dst(dt)

must return the same result for every datetime dt with dt.tzinfo == tz. For sane tzinfo subclasses, this expression yields the time zone’s “standard offset”, which should not depend on the date or the time, but only on geographic location. The implementation of datetime.astimezone() relies on this, but cannot detect violations; it’s the programmer’s responsibility to ensure it. If a tzinfo subclass cannot guarantee this, it may be able to override the default implementation of tzinfo.fromutc() to work correctly with astimezone() regardless.

Most implementations of dst() will probably look like one of these two:

def dst(self, dt):
    # a fixed-offset class:  doesn't account for DST
    return timedelta(0)

or:

def dst(self, dt):
    # Code to set dston and dstoff to the time zone's DST
    # transition times based on the input dt.year, and expressed
    # in standard local time.

    if dston <= dt.replace(tzinfo=None) < dstoff:
        return timedelta(hours=1)
    else:
        return timedelta(0)

The default implementation of dst() raises NotImplementedError.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The DST offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

tzinfo.tzname(dt)¶

Return the time zone name corresponding to the datetime object dt, as a string. Nothing about string names is defined by the datetime module, and there’s no requirement that it mean anything in particular. For example, "GMT", "UTC", "-500", "-5:00", "EDT", "US/Eastern", "America/New York" are all valid replies. Return None if a string name isn’t known. Note that this is a method rather than a fixed string primarily because some tzinfo subclasses will wish to return different names depending on the specific value of dt passed, especially if the tzinfo class is accounting for daylight time.

The default implementation of tzname() raises NotImplementedError.

These methods are called by a datetime or time object, in response to their methods of the same names. A datetime object passes itself as the argument, and a time object passes None as the argument. A tzinfo subclass’s methods should therefore be prepared to accept a dt argument of None, or of class datetime.

When None is passed, it’s up to the class designer to decide the best response. For example, returning None is appropriate if the class wishes to say that time objects don’t participate in the tzinfo protocols. It may be more useful for utcoffset(None) to return the standard UTC offset, as there is no other convention for discovering the standard offset.

When a datetime object is passed in response to a datetime method, dt.tzinfo is the same object as self. tzinfo methods can rely on this, unless user code calls tzinfo methods directly. The intent is that the tzinfo methods interpret dt as being in local time, and not need worry about objects in other time zones.

There is one more tzinfo method that a subclass may wish to override:

tzinfo.fromutc(dt)¶

This is called from the default datetime.astimezone() implementation. When called from that, dt.tzinfo is self, and dt’s date and time data are to be viewed as expressing a UTC time. The purpose of fromutc() is to adjust the date and time data, returning an equivalent datetime in self’s local time.

Most tzinfo subclasses should be able to inherit the default fromutc() implementation without problems. It’s strong enough to handle fixed-offset time zones, and time zones accounting for both standard and daylight time, and the latter even if the DST transition times differ in different years. An example of a time zone the default fromutc() implementation may not handle correctly in all cases is one where the standard offset (from UTC) depends on the specific date and time passed, which can happen for political reasons. The default implementations of astimezone() and fromutc() may not produce the result you want if the result is one of the hours straddling the moment the standard offset changes.

Skipping code for error cases, the default fromutc() implementation acts like:

def fromutc(self, dt):
    # raise ValueError error if dt.tzinfo is not self
    dtoff = dt.utcoffset()
    dtdst = dt.dst()
    # raise ValueError if dtoff is None or dtdst is None
    delta = dtoff - dtdst  # this is self's standard offset
    if delta:
        dt += delta   # convert to standard local time
        dtdst = dt.dst()
        # raise ValueError if dtdst is None
    if dtdst:
        return dt + dtdst
    else:
        return dt

In the following tzinfo_examples.py file there are some examples of tzinfo classes:

Eastern  = USTimeZone(-5, "Eastern",  "EST", "EDT")
Central  = USTimeZone(-6, "Central",  "CST", "CDT")
Mountain = USTimeZone(-7, "Mountain", "MST", "MDT")
Pacific  = USTimeZone(-8, "Pacific",  "PST", "PDT")

Note that there are unavoidable subtleties twice per year in a tzinfo subclass accounting for both standard and daylight time, at the DST transition points. For concreteness, consider US Eastern (UTC -0500), where EDT begins the minute after 1:59 (EST) on the second Sunday in March, and ends the minute after 1:59 (EDT) on the first Sunday in November:

  UTC   3:MM  4:MM  5:MM  6:MM  7:MM  8:MM
  EST  22:MM 23:MM  0:MM  1:MM  2:MM  3:MM
  EDT  23:MM  0:MM  1:MM  2:MM  3:MM  4:MM

start  22:MM 23:MM  0:MM  1:MM  3:MM  4:MM

  end  23:MM  0:MM  1:MM  1:MM  2:MM  3:MM

When DST starts (the “start” line), the local wall clock leaps from 1:59 to 3:00. A wall time of the form 2:MM doesn’t really make sense on that day, so astimezone(Eastern) won’t deliver a result with hour == 2 on the day DST begins. For example, at the Spring forward transition of 2016, we get:

>>> from datetime import datetime, timezone
>>> from tzinfo_examples import HOUR, Eastern
>>> u0 = datetime(2016, 3, 13, 5, tzinfo=timezone.utc)
>>> for i in range(4):
...     u = u0 + i*HOUR
...     t = u.astimezone(Eastern)
...     print(u.time(), 'UTC =', t.time(), t.tzname())
...
05:00:00 UTC = 00:00:00 EST
06:00:00 UTC = 01:00:00 EST
07:00:00 UTC = 03:00:00 EDT
08:00:00 UTC = 04:00:00 EDT

When DST ends (the “end” line), there’s a potentially worse problem: there’s an hour that can’t be spelled unambiguously in local wall time: the last hour of daylight time. In Eastern, that’s times of the form 5:MM UTC on the day daylight time ends. The local wall clock leaps from 1:59 (daylight time) back to 1:00 (standard time) again. Local times of the form 1:MM are ambiguous. astimezone() mimics the local clock’s behavior by mapping two adjacent UTC hours into the same local hour then. In the Eastern example, UTC times of the form 5:MM and 6:MM both map to 1:MM when converted to Eastern, but earlier times have the fold attribute set to 0 and the later times have it set to 1. For example, at the Fall back transition of 2016, we get:

>>> u0 = datetime(2016, 11, 6, 4, tzinfo=timezone.utc)
>>> for i in range(4):
...     u = u0 + i*HOUR
...     t = u.astimezone(Eastern)
...     print(u.time(), 'UTC =', t.time(), t.tzname(), t.fold)
...
04:00:00 UTC = 00:00:00 EDT 0
05:00:00 UTC = 01:00:00 EDT 0
06:00:00 UTC = 01:00:00 EST 1
07:00:00 UTC = 02:00:00 EST 0

Note that the datetime instances that differ only by the value of the fold attribute are considered equal in comparisons.

Applications that can’t bear wall-time ambiguities should explicitly check the value of the fold attribute or avoid using hybrid tzinfo subclasses; there are no ambiguities when using timezone, or any other fixed-offset tzinfo subclass (such as a class representing only EST (fixed offset -5 hours), or only EDT (fixed offset -4 hours)).

zoneinfo
The datetime module has a basic timezone class (for handling arbitrary fixed offsets from UTC) and its timezone.utc attribute (a UTC timezone instance).

zoneinfo brings the IANA time zone database (also known as the Olson database) to Python, and its usage is recommended.

IANA time zone database: The Time Zone Database (often called tz, tzdata or zoneinfo) contains code and data that represent the history of local time for many representative locations around the globe. It is updated periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to time zone boundaries, UTC offsets, and daylight-saving rules.

`timezone` Objects¶

The timezone class is a subclass of tzinfo, each instance of which represents a time zone defined by a fixed offset from UTC.

Objects of this class cannot be used to represent time zone information in the locations where different offsets are used in different days of the year or where historical changes have been made to civil time.

class datetime.timezone(offset, name=None)¶

The offset argument must be specified as a timedelta object representing the difference between the local time and UTC. It must be strictly between -timedelta(hours=24) and timedelta(hours=24), otherwise ValueError is raised.

The name argument is optional. If specified it must be a string that will be used as the value returned by the datetime.tzname() method.

Added in version 3.2.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The UTC offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

timezone.utcoffset(dt)¶

Return the fixed value specified when the timezone instance is constructed.

The dt argument is ignored. The return value is a timedelta instance equal to the difference between the local time and UTC.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The UTC offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

timezone.tzname(dt)¶

Return the fixed value specified when the timezone instance is constructed.

If name is not provided in the constructor, the name returned by tzname(dt) is generated from the value of the offset as follows. If offset is timedelta(0), the name is “UTC”, otherwise it is a string in the format UTC±HH:MM, where ± is the sign of offset, HH and MM are two digits of offset.hours and offset.minutes respectively.

3.6 sürümünde değişti: Name generated from offset=timedelta(0) is now plain 'UTC', not 'UTC+00:00'.

timezone.dst(dt)¶: Always returns None.

timezone.fromutc(dt)¶: Return dt + offset. The dt argument must be an aware datetime instance, with tzinfo set to self.

Sınıf özellikleri:

timezone.utc¶: The UTC time zone, timezone(timedelta(0)).

`strftime()` and `strptime()` Behavior¶

date, datetime, and time objects all support a strftime(format) method, to create a string representing the time under the control of an explicit format string.

Conversely, the datetime.strptime() class method creates a datetime object from a string representing a date and time and a corresponding format string.

The table below provides a high-level comparison of strftime() versus strptime():

	`strftime`	`strptime`
Usage	Convert object to a string according to a given format	Parse a string into a `datetime` object given a corresponding format
Type of method	Instance method	Class method
Method of	`date`; `datetime`; `time`	`datetime`
Signature	`strftime(format)`	`strptime(date_string, format)`

`strftime()` and `strptime()` Format Codes¶

These methods accept format codes that can be used to parse and format dates:

>>> datetime.strptime('31/01/22 23:59:59.999999',
...                   '%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S.%f')
datetime.datetime(2022, 1, 31, 23, 59, 59, 999999)
>>> _.strftime('%a %d %b %Y, %I:%M%p')
'Mon 31 Jan 2022, 11:59PM'

The following is a list of all the format codes that the 1989 C standard requires, and these work on all platforms with a standard C implementation.

`%W`	Week number of the year (Monday as the first day of the week) as a zero-padded decimal number. All days in a new year preceding the first Monday are considered to be in week 0.	00, 01, …, 53	(7), (9)
`%c`	Locale’s appropriate date and time representation.	Tue Aug 16 21:30:00 1988 (en_US); Di 16 Aug 21:30:00 1988 (de_DE)	(1)

Several additional directives not required by the C89 standard are included for convenience. These parameters all correspond to ISO 8601 date values.

Directive	Meaning	Example	Notes
`%G`	ISO 8601 year with century representing the year that contains the greater part of the ISO week (`%V`).	0001, 0002, …, 2013, 2014, …, 9998, 9999	(8)
`%u`	ISO 8601 weekday as a decimal number where 1 is Monday.	1, 2, …, 7
`%V`	ISO 8601 week as a decimal number with Monday as the first day of the week. Week 01 is the week containing Jan 4.	01, 02, …, 53	(8), (9)
`%:z`	UTC offset in the form `±HH:MM[:SS[.ffffff]]` (empty string if the object is naive).	(empty), +00:00, -04:00, +10:30, +06:34:15, -03:07:12.345216	(6)

These may not be available on all platforms when used with the strftime() method. The ISO 8601 year and ISO 8601 week directives are not interchangeable with the year and week number directives above. Calling strptime() with incomplete or ambiguous ISO 8601 directives will raise a ValueError.

The full set of format codes supported varies across platforms, because Python calls the platform C library’s strftime() function, and platform variations are common. To see the full set of format codes supported on your platform, consult the strftime(3) documentation. There are also differences between platforms in handling of unsupported format specifiers.

Added in version 3.6: %G, %u and %V were added.

Added in version 3.12: %:z was added.

Technical Detail¶

Broadly speaking, d.strftime(fmt) acts like the time module’s time.strftime(fmt, d.timetuple()) although not all objects support a timetuple() method.

For the datetime.strptime() class method, the default value is 1900-01-01T00:00:00.000: any components not specified in the format string will be pulled from the default value. [4]

Using datetime.strptime(date_string, format) is equivalent to:

datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string, format)[0:6]))

except when the format includes sub-second components or time zone offset information, which are supported in datetime.strptime but are discarded by time.strptime.

For time objects, the format codes for year, month, and day should not be used, as time objects have no such values. If they’re used anyway, 1900 is substituted for the year, and 1 for the month and day.

For date objects, the format codes for hours, minutes, seconds, and microseconds should not be used, as date objects have no such values. If they’re used anyway, 0 is substituted for them.

For the same reason, handling of format strings containing Unicode code points that can’t be represented in the charset of the current locale is also platform-dependent. On some platforms such code points are preserved intact in the output, while on others strftime may raise UnicodeError or return an empty string instead.

Notes:

Because the format depends on the current locale, care should be taken when making assumptions about the output value. Field orderings will vary (for example, “month/day/year” versus “day/month/year”), and the output may contain non-ASCII characters.
The strptime() method can parse years in the full [1, 9999] range, but years < 1000 must be zero-filled to 4-digit width.

3.2 sürümünde değişti: In previous versions, strftime() method was restricted to years >= 1900.

3.3 sürümünde değişti: In version 3.2, strftime() method was restricted to years >= 1000.
When used with the strptime() method, the %p directive only affects the output hour field if the %I directive is used to parse the hour.
Unlike the time module, the datetime module does not support leap seconds.
When used with the strptime() method, the %f directive accepts from one to six digits and zero pads on the right. %f is an extension to the set of format characters in the C standard (but implemented separately in datetime objects, and therefore always available).
For a naive object, the %z, %:z and %Z format codes are replaced by empty strings.

For an aware object:

%z
utcoffset() is transformed into a string of the form ±HHMM[SS[.ffffff]], where HH is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset hours, MM is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset minutes, SS is a 2-digit string giving the number of UTC offset seconds and ffffff is a 6-digit string giving the number of UTC offset microseconds. The ffffff part is omitted when the offset is a whole number of seconds and both the ffffff and the SS part is omitted when the offset is a whole number of minutes. For example, if utcoffset() returns timedelta(hours=-3, minutes=-30), %z is replaced with the string '-0330'.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: The UTC offset is not restricted to a whole number of minutes.

3.7 sürümünde değişti: When the %z directive is provided to the strptime() method, the UTC offsets can have a colon as a separator between hours, minutes and seconds. For example, '+01:00:00' will be parsed as an offset of one hour. In addition, providing 'Z' is identical to '+00:00'.
%:z
Behaves exactly as %z, but has a colon separator added between hours, minutes and seconds.

%Z
In strftime(), %Z is replaced by an empty string if tzname() returns None; otherwise %Z is replaced by the returned value, which must be a string.

strptime() only accepts certain values for %Z:
1. any value in time.tzname for your machine’s locale
2. the hard-coded values UTC and GMT
So someone living in Japan may have JST, UTC, and GMT as valid values, but probably not EST. It will raise ValueError for invalid values.
3.2 sürümünde değişti: When the %z directive is provided to the strptime() method, an aware datetime object will be produced. The tzinfo of the result will be set to a timezone instance.
When used with the strptime() method, %U and %W are only used in calculations when the day of the week and the calendar year (%Y) are specified.
Similar to %U and %W, %V is only used in calculations when the day of the week and the ISO year (%G) are specified in a strptime() format string. Also note that %G and %Y are not interchangeable.
When used with the strptime() method, the leading zero is optional for formats %d, %m, %H, %I, %M, %S, %j, %U, %W, and %V. Format %y does require a leading zero.
When parsing a month and day using strptime(), always include a year in the format. If the value you need to parse lacks a year, append an explicit dummy leap year. Otherwise your code will raise an exception when it encounters leap day because the default year used by the parser is not a leap year. Users run into this bug every four years…
```
>>> month_day = "02/29"
>>> datetime.strptime(f"{month_day};1984", "%m/%d;%Y")  # No leap year bug.
datetime.datetime(1984, 2, 29, 0, 0)
```
Deprecated since version 3.13, will be removed in version 3.15: strptime() calls using a format string containing a day of month without a year now emit a DeprecationWarning. In 3.15 or later we may change this into an error or change the default year to a leap year. See gh-70647.
